Many of you caught it live, but for those who missed it: R3 Printing was featured on BoldTV!

BoldTV is a digital television news network that believes in technology's power to promote social good and bridge divides. Produced in partnership with GenBiz, BoldTV is a project of Ethos: a non-profit educational initiative providing young Americans with information and resources about business and entrepreneurship.

In this segment, Dan and Paul share their thoughts on how a world of ubiquitous on-demand manufacturing, powered by R3 Printing, could impact market sectors such as retail. They also give insights into trends within the 3D printing industry - shedding light on the advances in materials science that have occurred and could be coming next. You can watch the segment here.

📍 More Milestones

We previously celebrated our campaign crossing over 1000% funded, but now we have another cause to celebrate: at over $345k raised we now have over 1000 investors in our round! 🎉

Our celebration goes beyond just the number: in 2016, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) enacted Title III of the JOBS Act, allowing a majority of the US population to invest in startups for the very first time. Before this groundbreaking legislation, early investing in tech startups was a privileged affair, available only to few.

In the days before Title III and platforms like Republic, an angel round would consist of only a small handful of wealthy investors. Having over a thousand investors in our current round is a big indicator that Republic's vision of democratizing early-stage investing is working. And by hosting our round on Republic, R3 Printing is doing its part to bring the potential rewards of early investing to the rest of us.

To all our R3 Printing Early Investors: we're thrilled to have you on board and couldn't be happier that we can share our successes with you. Let's build the 3D-printed future together. 🚀

@robert-martin-2 Thanks, Robert! I'm glad you enjoyed it! I haven't forgotten about the interview, it's on my to-do list for early next week, so we should be in touch about it really soon!

From a national security standpoint for any nation , the one thing thats important to note is shipping costs of products from centralized locations in the world , the shipping paths products travel and who controls them , https://ig.ft.com/sites/china-ports/ This Localized On-Demand_manufacturing device can help navigate Trade between nations by offsetting dependency . R3 Printing is a Big deal just from this one single issue in my opinion !

@viet-nguyen-1 Hi, Viet! Thank you for being an R3 Printing Early Investor! IPO isn't the only exit option, there's also a possibility that R3 Printing exits via acquisition. If you’re a close follower of the 3D printing / additive manufacturing industry, you’ll notice that there is a lot of industry consolidation through acquisitions (example: https://3dprintingindustry.com/news/xerox-acquires-vader-systems-steps-into-8-billion-3d-printing-industry-148561/).

There's no single "right time" for a startup to IPO. Traditionally, startups IPO after the seed stage/equity crowdfunding and the traditional VC rounds (ex. Series A/B/C/etc.), but as always, all companies adapt to their circumstances and the founders lead the company in the direction that makes the most sense for both the shareholders and the long-term health of the company.

Felt like a short chemistry lesson at BoldTV! Exciting show! =;-) Paul and Dan did a great job in their 6 minutes, you can feel their love for their product in this episode + they explained everything briefly and crisply. Cheers!
